Posted:  23 Jun 2006 20:04
Hi,

My forums pages show the following type of URL's:

http://domainname.com/sports-forums/forum5.html

How do I get rid of the forum5 at the end and just keep it as 5.html?

This has been explained a few times already. Search the forums.

I checked and did not find the answer.

I just want my forums URL's to read:

raz-sports.com/sports-forums/5.html

get rid of the "forum" before the number.

Edit the get_forum_url() and get_topic_url() functions in /code/skinning.php and also the .htaccess mod_rewrite rules.

Okay, and what do I change in these get_forum_url, get_topic_ulr and add to the .htaccess?

You need to remove the 'forum' part of the url strings.
